- Status of River Breakages along Juba and Shabelle Rivers - Issued March 2023
- Abstract
SWALIM has updated the status of the river breakages along the Juba and Shabelle Rivers using available Very High Resolution (VHR) satellite imagery acquired from World View 2/World View 3 and PLEIADES and a Digital Elevation Model (DEM).
Six types of breakages have been identified, namely; Canal Flooding Point, open, overflow, potential overflows, potential breakages and closed with sandbags. The open breakages are those that are currently open as observed on the latest VHR image available.
